I have had this problem on several versions of Quickbooks Desktop... most currently struggling with it on QB Desktop Premier Mfg & Wholesale 2020...

I frequently need to use "Find" (Ctrl + F)

When the search window opens, (using the "Advanced" Tab) the "Account" Filter is populated already.  In this case, it displays a checking account.  

Therefore, I can't search for anything that does not include that account... I have been unable to find a way to open the "Find" window and have no filters present.  

Because of this, I must do a "Reset" before I can make a search.  The only way I have found to fix the problem is to close and re-open QB... not a good solution.

This is very bothersome.  My searches for a fix have turned up no help.  Can anyone advise how to clear the filters, so that it will always open in a state with no "Account" already poulated?
